Hi everyone! We are set on a girl's name but need a boy's name! We have DD Eva and DS Erik. For them I used family name's for the mns so I would like to do the same w/ this baby. So far names I like include Aaron, Evan (too close in spelling to Eva?), Ian, Benjamin (too long w/ others?), Kirk, Jake. For mn's all we can come up w/ so far are Luke, Sylvester or Noel. Anything hit you? I guess if baby was born tomorrow and I had to have a name I would go w/ Ian Luke but I'm not totally sold. Another other suggestions or thoughts are GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!

With 2 E kids...I personally would stick with E for #3. Evan does look too close to Eva though...

How about...

Ephraim

Elijah

Elliot

Ethan

Everett

Eli

Elias

Elvis (lol...had to put it in)

Emil

Ezra (I do actually like this!! Eva, Erik and Ezra sounds really neat)

I really like Eli too...Eva, Erik, and Eli are a great match!

Good luck!

Ian Luke is fantastic, but if it's not the one.............

I like Kirk very much. It's not heard much and is short and boyish. Can we use one of the other first name contenders as a middle? I like Kirk Benjamin. In fact, when I was reading and saw Eva and Erik, I thought Kurt right away, which is just so similar to Kirk and not very usual either, that it's quite odd it would occur to me with your post!

Thanks for your suggestions! I do like Eli but don't know if I would use Elijah and Eli as a nn. I also will have to run it by dh - who is VERY picky!!! I really wanted a name like my other kids that was short and sweet. What do you think of Elijah Luke? I will have to look into the meaning of the name too..
